The Diamond of the Alps shines particularly brightly among Austria's top ski resorts.
The combination of premium ski area, upscale hotels and gastronomy as well as top-class events makes it a true insider’s tip for discerning connoisseurs. At altitudes between 1800 and 3080 meters with absolute snow guarantee, 112 perfectly groomed kilometers of pistes and 25 lifts can be explored - without any waiting times but with picture-perfect panoramas at every turn. Gurgl will start the season as one of the first winter ski areas in the Alps on 17 November 2022.
